i don't want to be the idiot who asks this but..

What do the triangle lights near the bumper do on the fr-s? Mine don't light up as fog, it reverse lights. I know you can rewire them to do things the JDM ones do, but are they just there stock or do they actually do something? Mine don't do anything..

They don't do anything. I n Europe and Japan as well as other countries outside the US this is a functional fog lamp.

On equipped vehicles, the turn signal stalk houses the switch for the rear fog.
